WI vs SA Live Cricket Score

3.3 OUT! CAUGHT! West Indies get their first wicket. Not a great shot, to be honest. On a good length and outside off, Bird looks to punch it towards the off side but gets a thick outside edge. It goes towards the keeper where Leonardo Julien takes it comfortably. 20/1

21.4 OUT! Run out. A body blow there for the South Africans. Manje was batting superbly but he has to take the long walk back. Patrick tosses one up on middle and leg, Cotani tucks it to the leg side and calls for a quick single. Manje is quick to respond to the call. Cotani later sees the keeper pouncing on the ball and sends Manje back. Lavert Manje turns and looks to get back in time but the keeper's throw is spot on and Manje's dive does not save him. He is found short as the stumps are shattered. The umpire raises the finger immediately. South Africa once again have to begin their innings. 98/4

6.2 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! That is a rip snorter! But Parsons does not want to go. He is on his haunches when the finger goes up in appeal and is shaking his head. He stays there looking at the umpire in dismay. Did he not nick it? A tough, tough call according to the replays. But what a brute of a nut. This is pitched on a good length, around leg, Parsons looks to defend but the ball kicks up after pitching and goes past him, to the keeper. That is what we feel. The fielding side appeals and the umpire raises his finger! We are shown just one replay and Tom Moody feels that the ball has grazed the glove. If he is saying it, there might have been but really difficult for an onlooker to judge that. 39/2

13.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Straight to the man! Catching practice. How much of that is influenced by the man under the helmet at short leg? No, not by sledging. But because of that man present right under his nose, Beaufort tried to manufacture a shot. He wants to go inside out. And James bowls it 6 inches outside off, short in length. Beaufort has to reach out and try to cut. Ends up hitting it straight to Kimani Melius at point! He cannot believe what he has done. 64/3

30.1 OUT! Stumped! Nedd gets his second wicket. Flighted delivery just outside off, Cotani comes down the track and looks to defend but misses it. It goes towards the keeper where Julien takes the bails off. 121/7

28.2 OUT! CLEANED UP! Nedd beat him in the last ball of the last over and this time he has his man. He tosses one up on middle and leg, Lees goes for the flick towards the leg side. The ball spins in a bit to beat him and crash into the furniture behind. South Africa's half the side is back into the hut. 120/5

29.3 OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Oh! Patrick starts to celebrate as soon as he took the catch. The umpires though are not sure and then converge to go upstairs. The soft signal is out and now the replays roll in to show that Moletsane has to go back to the hut here. Patrick bowls one fuller and on middle and leg, Moletsane looks to go down town by dancing down the track but he fails to get to the pitch of the ball. The bat turns in his hand on impact and the bat hits the ground. That is why the ball lobs straight to the bowler who takes it with both hands and starts celebrating. 121/6

38.2 OUT! CAUGHT! The catch is taken this time. Full and outside off, van Vuuren looks to play the slog but does not quite time it cleanly. Joshua James at deep mid-wicket gets down on a knee and takes it calmly. WEST INDIES NEED 144 TO WIN! 143/10

32 OUT! RUN OUT! South Africa are falling like nine pins here. Another miscommunication and a casualty occurs. Patrick tosses one up a bit fuller and outside off, Brett drives it towards cover-point and takes off for a run. His partner is not at all watching him and is unresponsive to his call. Merrick Brett sees the fielder from covers pounce on the ball and release it towards the keeper. He turns and runs behind and puts in a dive also. But by then the keeper Julian had already shattered the stumps. The umpire though to be sure takes it upstairs and the replays later show that Brett was short of his ground there. 122/8

37.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Cloete is the latest addition in the list of casualties. He tries to play like his partner but cannot imitate him. A short ball outside off, coming too with the angle. Cloete goes for a cut shot over point. But he gets it off the higher part of the bat and the ball lobs towards covers where Ashmead Nedd takes a dolly running to his left a bit. 143/9

9.2 OUT! LBW! The skipper departs after getting a start. Flighted delivery on middle, Melius looks to defend but misses it and gets hit on the pads. The bowler appeals for lbw and the umpire raises his finger. West Indies need 95 runs to win the match. 49/3

0.4 OUT! Bowled 'em! Julien goes for a golden duck. What a delivery from Merrick Brett there. Brett keeps it on a length and around off, the ball comes back with the angle into the left-hander. Julien looks to block it off the back foot but misses the line of the delivery. The ball hits the top of off stump. Brett jumps in delight as soon as he sees the bails flying. A beautiful sight for any pacer in the world. 1/1

3.5 OUT! TIMBER! South Africa are fighting hard here. They have given two blows to the West Indies here. Cloete bowls one fuller and around off, the ball swings into the batsman there. Anderson looks to punch it off the front foot towards covers but the ball beats his shot and hits the wood work behind. There was a big gap between bat and pad from where the ball sneaked through. 133 runs still needed for a West Indies victory. 11/2

17.3 OUT! LBW! That is as plumb as it gets. Moletsane gets a wicket in his first over. Loopy delivery on middle and off, it is the straighter one, Mckenzie looks to defend but gets hit on the pads. The bowler appeals for lbw and the umpire raises his finger. From the naked eye it looks as if the ball was crashing into the middle stump. 66/4

33.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Good catch by Brett. Tossed up delivery on off, Morris looks to loft it uppishly over mid off but does not get the elevation on it. It goes towards the fielder where Merrick Brett jumps and takes a one-handed catch to his right. Is there still hope? West Indies require 31 runs to win the match. 113/5

38.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Brett lands it on a length and the ball comes a bit on off, Young looks to loft this one into the universe but fails to get any timing onto that shot. The ball takes the top edge and lobs high in the air towards mid off. Tiaan van Vuuren stationed there takes a few steps back and gobbles it up. A good effort as such high catches often result in dropped catches. 14 now required for the win. 130/6
